With the pioneering Edison Company from the beginning, this ascetic-looking stage veteran played Captain de Treville in a 1911 version of The Three Musketeers. Over the years, Brower specialized in portraying stern aristocrats, lawyers, doctors, and others in a wide variety of films ranging from Vanity Fair (1915; as Mr. Osborne) to William Wellman's Beggars of Life (1928; as the hobo Blind Sims). The seemingly indefatigable but by then quite elderly actor continued in films until the year of his death.
